I have a Toshiba 1905-S303 laptop that had an Agere Systems MPC13A-20/R WiFi b 11mbs mini PCI card. I installed a Broadcom BCM94306MPSG g 54mbs and can not get it to work. The light on front of my laptop that is on when I turn the WiFi card on will not light up with this new card. I was told that pins 11-16 are user defined and that Toshiba uses some of these pins to turn the card on and off and that was why I could not get the card to turn on. Does anybody know anything about turning this Broadcom card on and the driver I need for Win XP.

Andy'
Thanks for the reply. I have installed a driver but I don't know if it's the right one. I will download the one you have here and see what happens. I think the problem is going to be with the pins and my Toshiba not being able to turn the card on. This card might not be compatible with my laptop. I would like to talk to someone that has used this card with a Toshiba like mine and got it to work so I can find out what they did.
